DTP2 R 212 Series • Installation 9
APower inlet — Plug the provided external 12VDC power supply into this 2‑pole,
3.5mm captive screw inlet and into an DC power outlet (see Power Connector on
page12).
NOTE: The DTP2 R 212 SA model is supplied with, and requires, a higher‑wattage
power supply (4.2 A, 50 Watts). The non‑SA model can use a standard 2.0 A,
24Watt supply.
BHDMI input — Connect a HDMI video source to this female type A HDMI connector.
This port can also accept DVI video with appropriate adapter.
NOTE: LockIt cable lacing brackets are provided to secure the HDMI cables to the
rear panel ports and reduce stress on the connectors, preventing signal loss due
to loose cable connections (see LockIt Lacing Brackets on page18).
COVER DTP2 control — Connect a serial RS‑232 signal, a modulated IR signal,
or both into this 3.5mm, 5‑pole captive screw port for bidirectional RS‑232 and IR
communication (see Over DTP2 RS-232 and IR Control on page17 to wire the
connector).
DDTP2 IN RJ-45 port — Plug one end of a DTP2 cable to this RJ‑45 female port.
Plug the opposite end of this cable into the DTP port on a compatible transmitter (see
TP Connector and Cable Recommendations on page14 to wire the RJ‑45
connector and NOTES on page15).
• Signal LED — Lights green when the unit is sensing a TMDS clock signal on the
DTP2 input.
• Link LED — Lights amber to indicate a valid link is established between the units.
ATTENTION:
• Do not connect this device to a telecommunications or computer data network.
• Ne connectez pas cet appareil à un réseau de télécommunications ou de
données informatiques.
ESend Power toggle switch (see figure3 on page8) — The Send Power switch
enables or disables the sending of power from the receiver to a DTP2 transmitter.
Set the toggle switch to the UP (Send Power) position on the powered DTP2 unit to
enable sending remote power to the other device. Set the toggle switch to the DOWN
(OFF) position on the DTP2 unit receiving power.
NOTES: Guidelines for setting the Send Power switch:
• If you are using the DTP2 R 212 SA (amplified audio) receiver, the power output
of the DTP2 transmitter is not enough to power the receiver. You can send
power from the receiver to the transmitter, but not from the transmitter to the
receiver (see figure5 on page11).
• If you are using the DTP2 R 212 receiver (not the SA model), the power output
of the DTP2 transmitter is enough to power the receiver. You can send power
either way, if desired (see figure4 on page10).

DTP2 R 212 Series • Installation 10
ATTENTION:
• The DTP2R212 device is configured to send or receive power with other
DTP2 models only. If connected to a Legacy DTP device, set the SEND
POWER toggle switch to the “DOWN” position (OFF). Failure to turn the power
OFF will damage the connected DTP device (see figure4).
• Le DTP2R212 est configuré pour fournir une alimentation aux modèles
DTP2 uniquement. S’il est connecté à un autre appareil, veuillez positionner
l’interrupteur à bascule sur « DOWN » (OFF). Si l’interrupteur n’est pas
positionné sur OFF, vous risquez d’entraîner la défaillance de l’appareil Legacy
DTP connecté (voir figure4).
